Can anyone identify this lovely iridescent beetle. I found it on a newly bought plant from the GC...hope it's harmless. Many thanks.

, but alas a major pest by the sound of it, so it will have to go I'm afraid...if I can find it again.

There will be more than one! They're partial to a bit of sage too.
